Middle and high school students are invited to celebrate youth drug and alcohol prevention at Prevention is a Party!
Teens from our community want to take back 4/20 and make it a day about celebrating making healthy decisions. All they need is your help! How? Share this event with youth you know.
In partnership with Firstenburg Community Center’s Teen Late Night program, peer educators from the Clark County STASHA program are hosting Prevention is a Party, a drug- and alcohol-free celebration for youth in Clark County, on April 19 from 8-10:30 pm. There will be free food, swimming (youth must bring their own locks for the lockers), basketball, a live DJ, video games, table games, and giveaways and prizes.
It is open to all Clark County middle and high school students.
Prevention research consistently shows that youth are less likely to use substances if they are affiliated with friends who provide positive peer support, have good coping skills, have access to healthy leisure activities, and are in a community that is against substance use.
STASHA (pronounced stay-shuh) stands for Strong Teens Against Substances, Hazards and Abuse. STASHA Peer Educators are Clark County youth between the ages of 12-19 (7th grade to freshman in college). STASHA works to prevent substance use among their peers and with their community, using their own words and in their own way.
